That extra screw on the low c key reaches down to contact a lever below the split-d ring assembly.
Depress just the c key to see it work. It will close other keys above the d, but its real purpose for high d is to close just the inner ring on the low d.
According to Ginger Ramsay at Covey oboes where mine was made, the inner d key should close 'almost' all the way leaving it slightly vented for best performance.
I have tried to that way and completely closed and find Ginger's advice the best for my oboe.
Lacking a facilitator on my former Loree and older Covey, John Mack showed me if I quickly lift the LH first finger when approaching the d, and then quickly put it back, it gives a similar benefit to the d facilitator key.
